LAUNCH X431

  Question: I have a LAUNCH X431 PRO5 and an XPROG5 , and I want to clone the ECU from a 2025 Opel Corsa F with a 1.5 HDi diesel engine. The ECU model is Bosch MD1CS003 (Bosch part number 0 281 039 556). I tested the ECU but was unable to read the data. How can I use the LAUNCH XPROG5 to read and write this MD1CS003 ECU? Solution: Select the MG1CS031 H80 (Locked) menu and connect according to the wiring diagram below. You must use the XPROG5 (G5) PC ECU software and the RH850 adapter . Ensure you are using the latest version of the ECU software (V10.70 or higher). www.x431shop.eu
